Very excited to have been awarded an #ERCCoG grant, DYNBIOTICS, to understand why #antibiotics cannot enter in #AMR bacteria and to discover new antibiotics. Thanks to @ERC_Research for funding this project, to my research team, colleagues and collaborators https://twitter.com/ERC_Research/status/1620376382428819461

Revised paper alert! #Cilia move fluid in our brains, clear our lungs, and allow sperm to navigate to the egg. Cilia are often densely packed at the surface of epithelium and need to coordinate their beating to pump fluid efficiently. https://elifesciences.org/articles/77701#contentMotile #cilia

Excited to release our latest work, led by @hbozhao in collaboration with our friend Andrej Košmrlj!

In this preprint (https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.12345), we study how chemotactic active matter phase separates—and find many cool surprises. 🦠🚀🔬
